The Nate Geller Memorial Lecture: US, Israel, Iran War and Aftermath

Hosted By: 70 Faces Media

You are cordially invited to attend The Nate Geller Memorial Lecture, “US, Israel, Iran War and Aftermath,” on Tuesday, May 19, at 6:00 p.m. ET.

The program will feature David Makovsky, Ziegler Distinguished Fellow at The Washington Institute and director of the Koret Project on Arab-Israel Relations, in conversation with Ami Eden, CEO of 70 Faces Media.

Despite significant tactical successes in the campaign against Iran, a long-term resolution remains complex. While Iran’s missile production capabilities have been severely impacted, the nation maintains highly enriched uranium and strategic control over the Strait of Hormuz. Additionally, while U.S. and Israeli military cooperation has deepened, recent domestic polling and Senate votes indicate a growing divergence in public opinion. Our discussion will examine the future of this conflict and its impact on U.S.-Israel relations.

We look forward to your participation in this important conversation.

About Our Speaker: David Makovsky is the Ziegler Distinguished Fellow at The Washington Institute and director of the Koret Project on Arab-Israel Relations. He is also an adjunct professor in Middle East studies at Johns Hopkins University’s Paul H. Nitze School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS) and president of the board for the National Library of Israel’s U.S. affiliate (NLI-USA). In 2013-2014, he worked in the Office of the U.S. Secretary of State, serving as a senior advisor to the Special Envoy for Israeli-Palestinian Negotiations.

This lecture is presented in memory of our treasured 70 Faces Media colleague, Nate Geller z”l, who passed away in January 2022. Nate was a passionate supporter of Israel and a devoted Jewish learner. Through this annual lecture series, we hope to honor Nate’s memory for many years to come.
